Newtown Unthank questions

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?

No. That needs a new toilet. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

What happens after I send photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Do you work in Newtown Unthank?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Newtown Unthank and the rest of Leicestershire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Toilet chip repair in Newtown Unthank, done in place

A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Whether it’s damage from dropped items and marks on the outside of the pan, we can generally put it right.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Newtown Unthank

If you manage property in Newtown Unthank, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

When we would advise against a repair

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • A crack that leaks water
  • A crack through the bowl or trap
  • A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Cisterns & lids
  • Porcelain
  • Pedestals
  • Toilet pans
  • Vitreous china

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • No need to remove anything

See our prices page.

What toilet chip repair costs

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Newtown Unthank. The price reflects:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send pictures for a quote

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What we are called out for in Newtown Unthank

Toilets and cisterns typically get chipped during fitting, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids are a common casualty.

Customers generally contact us about:

  • Chips on the cistern lid
  • Chips on the pan or rim

  • Damage from dropped items

Questions to ask before you book

  • What happens if they find more damage
